A company wants to set up operations in a country with the following corporate tax rate structure: Taxable Income Tax Rate <$
Alisiya [41]

Answer:

Taxable income = $240,000

Amount payable = $64,850

Explanation:

As per the data given in the question,

Taxable income :

Gross revenue = $400,000

Total cost = $100,000

Net profit = $400,000 - $100,000 = $300,000

Allowable tax deduction = $60,000

Taxable income = $300,000 - $60,000

= $240,000

Tax to be paid :

Computation of tax       Amount to be taxed           Rate            Tax

$50,000                                 $50,000                        15%            $7,500

$50,000 to $75,000             $25,000                        25%           $6,250

$75,000 to $100,000           $25,000                         34%           $8,500

More than $100,000             $140,000                       39%           $54,600

Total tax                                                                                           $76,850

Amount payable = Total tax - Tax credit

= $76,850 - $12,000

=$64,850

How does a deductible affect insurance?
Alex73 [517]

The deductible is the amount a person must pay before their insurance will start to pay. For instance, say you have a $1,000 deductible on your car and you have a wreck that causes $3,000 worth of damage. the driver would have to pay the $1,000 first and then the insurance will help cover the other $2,000 at the rate the policy stipulates.

As for pricing, the insurance policies with higher deductibles (meaning the subscriber pays more for losses), the insurance premium would be cheaper than those policies with a smaller deductible.

The country of Baurisia has, until now, been self-sufficient in both grain and meat. However, with growing prosperity in Baurisi
meriva

Answer:

D) It is more economical for Baurisians to import meat than grain.

Explanation:

The argument states that meat consumption in Baurisia is steadily increasing while domestic production is not.

There are two alternatives:

  1. import more grains to feed more animals and produce more meat (the argument favors this option),
  2. or simply import more meat.

But if importing meat is cheaper than importing grains, then there is no need to import more grains in order to feed animals and later get meat from them, you just simply and directly import meat.

Archy [21]

Answer:

$3,667.44

Explanation:

The amount you would be willing to pay today can be determined by finding the present value of the cash flows

Present value is the sum of discounted cash flows

Present value can be calculated using a financial calculator

Cash flow each year from year 1 to 4 = $25

Cash flow in year 5 = $25 + $5000

I = 7%

Present value = $3,667.44

To find the PV using a financial calculator:

1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

2. after inputting all the cash flows, press the NPV button, input the value for I, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.
